from 2010 to now... Client Side Rendering is Not So
Easy
Nuria Ruiz @pantojacoder
What is client side rendering? A fine idea...
None
<div class="entry"> <h1>{{title}}</h1> <div class="body"> {{{value}}} </div> </div> { "title":
"Pretty title", "value": 10000, }
To move rendering to the client you need two things:
1. Template Engine 2. Templates Loads of Javascript in the client.
None
Couple of things about About 1 billion page requests every
day. 10% on IE7, 0.5% on IE6.
We have a loading bar.
We have a thick Javascript client.
We offer several languages: Spanish, English, Catalan...
Back to loads of Javascript in the client... Remember that
loading bar? 500 K compressed, 23 requests ~ 3300 K of Javascript !!!!
Performance Problem #1 Eager loading of Javascript. Async !=Lazy
<div class="footer"> <div> <a class="hide" href="%sectionLink%"> <fw:translate id="Video.video_view_more_link"> %(video_view_more_link)View more...
</fw:translate> </a> </div> Performance Problem #2 and #3 Templates were plain HTML documents.
We needed to do ajax to retrieve templates, which are
HTML docs (cannot use <script>). AND Loads of walking the DOM to insert data.
None
Faster on IE7 than Chrome. We tried a "new" templating
technology to solve the DOM issue.
XSLT
XSLT was faster but had many problems. Browser Implementation is
1.0. It does not support dynamic subtemplating. Adding translations was a major pain.
STEP BACK
With as much Javascript we had in the client nothing
is going to go fast. Fact #1 We need to load Javascript lazily.
None
How does the YUI lazy loading work?
None
<a href="#m=Albums&f=index" onclick="Bootloader('t-albums- showcase','Request.click','?m=Albums&f=index');return false;" title="My photo albums">…</a> Each link
does an HTTP request to retrieve the Javascript needed. YUI().use('t-albums')
None
We can remove the loading bar.
Fact #2 We need to start from scratch on the
template engine.
None
works using a Lexical Parser. Based on Jison, a Javascript
parser generator.
<div class="entry"> <h1>{{title}}</h1> <div class="body"> {{{body}}} </div> </div> Template: Compilation:
$ npm install handlebars $ /usr/bin/handlebars sample_template.js Builds a grammar based on HTML that compiles to Javascript.
(function() { var template = Handlebars. template['sample_template.js'] =function (Handlebars,depth0,helpers,partials,data) {
helpers = helpers || Handlebars.helpers; var self = this; buffer += "<div class=\"entry\">\n <h1>"; ..... } buffer += escapeExpression(stack1) + "</h1>\n <div class=\"body\">\n ” .... buffer += escapeExpression(stack1) + "\n </div>\n </div>\n"; return buffer; }); })()
DOM manipulation.
Why Handlebars? If/else constructors. Handlebars is actively worked on. Compilation
available.
How do we download templates? With YUI, just like anything
else, templates now are Javascript. <a href="#m=Albums&f=index" onclick="Bootloader('t-photo','Request.click', '?m=Albums&f=index); return false;" title="My photo albums">…</a>
YUI walks the dependency tree.
None
Translations client side. {{{translate "Photos" "%(photo_save_title) Save"}}} We hope to
open source our I18N for Handlebars.
Do we use Client Side Rendering for everything? No. 1.
Features that exist only client side, like overlays, autocomplete, spinners, chat UI. 2. Features for which there are significant CPU savings to be done, e.g. high traffic pages like photos.
What's next? Server Side.
Last Thoughts.
Do not think about problems in isolation.
Use the right tool for the job.
Measure Everything.
